.XYZ domains – Last year at $0.01 each.
During the last 60 days, the .XYZ gTLD has lost 1 million domain names.
That’s 15% of its total number of registrations, that went down from 6.6 million to 5.6 million domains. It still retains the #1 position in the gTLD rankings.
A year ago, the .XYZ Registry rolled out an unprecedented “penny promo” that lasted almost a month.
During the promotion, almost 3 million .XYZ domains were registered, at a price between a penny and a quarter later on.
We predicted that the drops this year would be substantial, and this is only the beginning; the next 30-60 days will reveal the actual numbers.
Meanwhile, some people narrowly avoided being hit with huge renewal bills for .XYZ domains at regular prices.
Recently, the .XYZ Registry has rolled out a sub-dollar promotion for numeric domains, an interesting move as it does not seem to involve Chinese registrars.

Totally useless. Why would anyone purchase .xyz? It’s banned in China and only known for spam use. Everyone’s reaction from any communication with a and email or website ending in .xyz is disgust. The 1.111B marketing scheme failed to recoup the lost (fake) domains. I would not waste money on these domains. Company is a fraud.
